About 6 months into the COVID-19 pandemic, a new buzzword was getting a lot of use: "trust the science" - and anybody who dared to ask questions? Well, they must be a right-wing, pro-Trump, dirtbag. Only one problem... Many of the people who haven't been trusting "the science" are legitimate doctors. Some of them are the best in their fields.

This is part 1 in a series of episodes where I take a look at the actual science from the most well-intentioned voices - even Donald Trump. Follow the money as I deconstruct the hydroxychloroquine fiasco, the suppression of slam dunk COVID treatment ivermectin, and speculate on why the disinformation campaign against valid medicines is so heavy-handed.

Could it be the powers that be want to sell their vaccine? Was Trump derangement syndrome making people crazy? Politics, corporations, and science don't mix. This time, the people needed to lose everything so the most powerful could win big.
